A Queen's Revenge

Calix held his breath when Emy approached the two-way mirror.

He and the fifth prince had been watching the people in the other room from that mirror. Curiousity got the better of them, after all, this was their first time encuntering ladies crossdressing as men and entering a brothel to have some kind of secret discussion.

But when Emy walked towards the mirror and satrted to remove her hat, he couldn't help but to feel as if they were doing something indecent.

Emy started to remove her bun and that freed her long and beautiful hair.

"Turn around." Sebastian told him.

Calix' eyebrows wrinkled because of that. But the prince looked at him.

"I said turn around."

He obediently did as he was commanded. Though, he couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed because of that.

However, Sebastian fixed his eyes on the woman in front of him.

He watched as she moved her hands on hair to fix it. He watched as she looked satisfied as she placed her hat back. And how she traced her own reflection on the mirror.

And when she smirked, he also did the same. If the mirror was not between them, one could say that they were smirking back at each other.

Sebastian shook his head while still had his smirk. This lady was really intelligent.

His smile was still on his face until Emy stated clearly what she want from Alessandra.

"Your betrayal back then in exchange of your betrayal now."

This made Calix looked back on the mirror with dumbfounded expression. Emy was already walking back towards Alessandra thrn she stopped and faced her.

"I want to know everything about Diana. Everything you know about her from her past to present. Including her plans. I want you to report all of it to me. Otherwise, I won't think twice telling Agatha what I know about her and you."

That was an outright threat.

At first, Alessandra felt fear. The threat of this lady was afterall personal for her. But as she stared at the crossdressing lady in front of her, she was somehow in doubt if she could really do her threat. Surely, no matter how brave this lady was acting now, it would be impossible for her to be too vicious.

Emy was obviously a noble lady from one of the elite households here in Grey City. In fact, her movement reminded Alessandra of Samantha.

Samantha... who died in her hands.

With that thought, Alessandra's fear disappeared. How could she feel threatened by this lady? When after all, she, herself, did a lot of worst things.

Comparing her and this lady, Alessandra was quite sure that the latter would not be able to hold a candle against her. It wasn't something to be proud of. But so what?

She smirked at Emy. "And do you really think I will be afraid of you?"

She was stumped when the lady smirked back at her. "Well, you should. After all, I killed those seven teammates of yours and bombed the headquarters of your beloved Black Council."

This time, Alessandra could no longer summon any courage.

The Black Council was untouchable. Until someone started to kill their members. Even with what they had done yesterday, huge number of their members were caught and their families were not that spared.

Even the people of Prince Vio were also caught. If the prince didn't do some under the table action, his people would totally be compromised and they would be in deep trouble.

"S-so it was you..."

"I am. I told you, I know everything. But I need you to know the plans of Diana as soon as possible.

"And whether you like it or not, you will do it for me. You will give me the information I need in order for me to spare your sister's life."

Emy stood up, not even waited for her response.

"I expect your first news as soon as possible. Just send it to Purple Boutique and say that it is for Emy Hans."

Emy nodded at her people and the started leaving the room.

After leaving the VIP room, Emy stopped walking in front of the door of the next room. Then she silently told her people to be quiet and just wait there.

Not too long after that though, the door of that room opened and two people came out from it.

Calix was even surprised of being caught but not the Fifth Prince.

"As expected, you must have figured out about the two way mirror when you approached it." The Fifth Prince said with a smirk.

"As expected, you surely enjoy meddling with my business, your highness."

Sebastian laughed.

"Why won't I?" Then he walked towards her and closed the distance between their faces. But Emy didn't flinch. She even met the eyes of the prince. "You are the most interesting person I have ever met. Just continue doing it."

He even tapped her soft cheeks before straightened himself and left them there.

Calix just awkwardly nodded at her before rushed after the prince. He could still remember the last time he received a punch from Emy after she got pissed by Sebastian. He should avoid her now since obviously, this made her mad.

He was right, though.

Emy felt her blood boiling.

She fisted her hand and glared at the retreating back of the fifth prince.

He really annoyed her soooo much!

She irritatingly made her way to the exit and her maidservants followed her immediately.

However, Anika had her eyebrow rising while Lia and Veronica couldn't help looking at each other. They had seen that Emy's expression before and it was when they last visited the Purple Boutique.

Seemed like, the Prince was also responsible of that event.
